Frederick and Elizabeth Langham founded Langham Funeral Home in 1921. Working along side her husband, it is believed that Elizabeth was one of New York State's first female funeral directors and embalmers. In 1928, their son, R. Meredith Langham joined the family business and was followed by his son John A. Langham, who recently retired after serving the community for over 45 years.
A life long native of Auburn, Barbara is a 1985 Auburn High School graduate, a 1989 SUNY Oswego graduate with a degree in communications and a 1994 graduate of Simmons Institute of Funeral Service. Barbara has been a licensed funeral director and embalmer at Langham Funeral Home since 1995 and takes great pride in her family's heritage.
Whatever the service you select, family and friends getting together to honor a loved one's life is one of the most important steps in the grieving and healing process. You may opt to have a traditional religious or military service, or as more and more people are doing, you can choose to have a non-traditional 'life celebration'.
Whether a death is sudden or expected, the loss of a loved one makes us feel emotional and overwhelmed. No amount of planning can fully prepare you for the loss of a loved one. When you are in a heightened emotional state, even the most basic decisions can seem staggering. The staff at Langham Funeral Home are here to help ease your stress and guide you through many decisions and emotions.
Traditionally, a burial service involves a visitation, followed by a funeral service in a church, the funeral home or other place of worship. The casket is typically present at both these events, and it is your decision on whether to have the casket open or not. You have the option of having the remains interred (earth burial), or it may be entombed in a crypt inside a mausoleum (above ground burial).
